We have two different types of corner brackets, 445 and 448. 448 is our universal corner bracket that fits all wall lights, however, you can drill holes yourself to suit your light fitting. 445 is a corner bracket that is specially adapted to a number of our light fittings, which are what you see here. We have no round corner brackets.

The light fitting only has an IP23 rating. Can it be used outside then? 
Yes, IP23 means that the light fitting can sit outdoors. IP23 means that it has protection against penetrating objects larger than 12 mm and for it being protected from splashing water at a maximum angle of 60 degrees.

It is stated in the instructions for use that you should lubricate the light fittings with neutral oil 4 times a year, which oil should I use? 
We recommend a neutral oil, such as sewing machine oil or 5–56 multispray. Light fittings that are treated with oil 4 times a year get better protection against weather and wind.
